13th trip - Trewan Hall Newquay

Our thirteenth trip was for 7 nights at Trewan Hall near Newquay in cornwall.
The traffic was horrendous on the trip from Clevedon to Newquay and the whole journey cost over £120 in petrol from 'up north' to Trewan Hall pulling our weeks worth of belongings in the caravan.
The site is massive and has an indoor pool which costs 50p and our kids loved it in there.
We were holidaying with Liz and Sean, who were in their tent.
I have a video of them putting their tent up which I should put online someday, quite funny.
On the site their is a barn where every night there is some form of entertainment, where you can bring your own booze.
The entertainment ranged from a rock band to an orchestra to a choir to a clown to a wild animal show and was very good every night.
We spent a few days at various local beaches and had a pretty good holiday.
I used to live in Newquay as a child and it was interesting to look at my old school and house. Nostalgic!

12th trip - Yeolands Farm Clevedon

Our twelfth trip was for 1 night at Yeolands Farm in Clevedon, somewhere near Bristol.
We were on our way to Cornwall for a week and wanted to break up the journey because we were leaving straight from work on Friday night and we could get a good start to get into cornwall.
No photos of this place but it was a nice little place quite close to the motorway and very handy to know.
Here is a handy video that I found on Youtube which shows the site.

11th trip - Gibraltar Farm again

Our eleventh trip was once again to Gibraltar Farm.
This is the 3rd weekend in a row that we came here.
Tv reception is rubbish here, but the steward has a spare aerial if you ask nicely.
He promises that he's going to get some more for sale, but they haven't appeared yet.
Maybe next year. Hopping into my time machine and I know that he doesn't get any next year either!
I wish I could buy one of these aerials
